DMCA Takedown Policy

Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Compliance

We respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect our users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), we have implemented procedures for receiving and responding to notices of alleged copyright infringement.

Designated Agent for DMCA Notices

In accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(c), we have designated an agent to receive DMCA takedown notices. To file a DMCA takedown notice, please send your request to our designated agent:

Filing a DMCA Takedown Notice

If you believe that content on our platform infringes your copyright, please provide our designated agent with the following information in writing:

1. Physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorized agent
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or if multiple works are covered, a representative list
3. Identification of the infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (e.g., URL, event slug, video ID)
4. Contact information, including your name, address, telephone number, and email address
5. Statement of good faith that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law
6. Statement of accuracy that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner

Counter-Notification Process

If you believe that content was removed in error or as a result of misidentification, you have the right to file a counter-notification under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3). Your counter-notification must be sent to our designated agent at the address above and must include:

1. Physical or electronic signature of the subscriber or authorized agent
2. Identification of the material that was removed or disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled (include URL, video ID, or event slug)
3. Statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled
4. Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or if you are outside the United States, for any judicial district in which the service provider may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original takedown notification or an agent of such person

What Happens After You File:

• We will promptly forward your counter-notification to the original complainant
• The complainant will have 10-14 business days to notify us that they have filed a court action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity
• If we do not receive such notice within the specified timeframe, we may restore the removed content within 10-14 business days after receiving your counter-notification
• If the complainant files a court action, the content will remain removed pending court resolution

Warning: Filing a false counter-notification can have legal consequences. By filing a counter-notification, you are making statements under penalty of perjury. You may be subject to liability for damages if you materially misrepresent that material was removed by mistake or misidentification.

Repeat Infringers

In accordance with DMCA requirements, we maintain a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers of copyright.

File Safety and Content Validation

In addition to copyright compliance, we maintain file validation procedures to ensure uploaded content matches declared file types. While we do not perform antivirus scanning, we validate file signatures and enforce strict format requirements.

Users are responsible for ensuring their uploads are free from malware. Files that are found to contain malicious code will be removed, and the uploading account may be terminated. See our Terms of Service for complete details on file safety requirements.

False Claims

Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing may be subject to liability. Please ensure that your notice is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Processing Time

We will respond to valid DMCA notices promptly, typically within 1-3 business days. We will remove or disable access to allegedly infringing content upon receipt of a valid takedown notice.
